Pesto Chicken Linguine with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Tender chicken breast sautéed until golden and tossed with al dente linguine in a vibrant, herbaceous pesto sauce punctuated by chewy sun-dried tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
1.25 oz whole grain linguine
1 tbsp basil pesto
1 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
0.5 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to package directions until al dente.
While the pasta cooks, cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pasta cooking water, then drain the linguine thoroughly.
Lower the skillet heat to medium and add the cooked pasta, basil pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, and the reserved pasta water to the chicken.
Toss in the baby spinach and stir for 1 minute until the leaves are just wilted and the sauce is glossy and well-combined.
Finish the dish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and serve immediately.
